<!-- begin body-content -->Police in two suburban municipalities and the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office are continuing investigations into separate traffic incidents involving two of Eagles coach Andy Reid's sons.
The first incident, on Tuesday morning, involved Britt Reid, a second man, and a gun. Law enforcement officials would not say who possessed the weapon.
NBC10, quoting a law enforcement source, reported last night that investigators found a gun in Britt Reid's car, and a platinum handgun during a search of the Reid home Tuesday night in Villanova. That gun was reportedly in a lockbox in the basement.
When asked last night if a search warrant had been served on the Reid home, Montgomery County First Assistant District Attorney Risa Vetri Ferman said: "West Conshohocken police served two search warrants yesterday... . I will not comment on what was found during the course of the search."
In the second traffic incident, police said they found Garrett Reid in possession of drug paraphernalia after he was involved in an automobile accident Tuesday afternoon.
The Reids and the Eagles declined to discuss the incidents.
"The Reid family does not have any comment at this point," Derek Boyko, an Eagles team spokesman, said yesterday.
The incident involving Britt Reid, 21, was a confrontation with another man on Matson Ford Road in West Conshohocken. The second man has not been identified.
"There was a report of an incident where a gun was displayed," said Ferman. She would not say who handled the weapon.
Here's the transcript of Andy Reid at a press conference for his son's (Parody)
First off injuries. Garrett has some swelling on the right wrist where the handcuffs were applied. The West Conshocken police did a nice job arresting my kids. They worked hard out there today.
Rich Hoffman: Philadelphia Daily News, Andy, are you concerned that your kids will get in trouble again next week.
Andy Reid: Rich, I have to do a better job raising my kids. It's on me and I have to put them in a position to win
Bob Brookover: Philadelphia Inquirer, Andy, who called the discipline this week, you or your wife Tammy
Andy Reid: Tammy, called the discipline this week. I felt she could do a better job and my boys have all the confidence in her.
Steven A Smith: ESPN, Andy is Britt going to continue using the K-Gun offense or is he going to switch to a Bong to prevent the blitz.
Andy Reid: Steven, what are you smoking out there. The kids have been running plays with the gun for several weeks now.
